About Laura Young, LCSW
Laura has over ten years of experience working with adolescents, adults, and seniors in mental health. She honors being included in patients’ treatment journeys and respects the individuality of every journey toward well-being and recovery. Laura strongly believes that a person’s past does not define their future, and they can become who they want to be. She believes in honest feedback, collaboration, and insight as patients participate in therapy. Laura received training in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and motivational interviewing. She hopes patients integrate meaningful skills and patterns into their lifestyles as a part of the therapy experience to support lifelong well-being. Laura was introduced to the social work field while working in a refugee center in London. She appreciates Art Williams’s quote, “I am not telling you it will be easy. I am telling you it is going to be worth it.”

Every session with Laura is awesome and she has given me so many tools to use in my daily life. Everyone in my life has also seen the difference in how I deal with anxiety and depression in my daily routine. It is probably my phone but I have issues with Laura hearing me.. although I do the test in the beginning with all things saying I m good to go, she can t hear me or I have to be placed in low resolution. We sometimes just do over the phone instead of video chat.. still always a great session... she is the BEST!!

Laura Young was very professional and resourceful each and every time. Words cannot adequately convey my appreciation and gratitude to Laura Young and Mindpath for the invaluable experience of grief counseling in which I participated. I not only learned new skills for this journey but also remembered life skills for everyday success.

Laura is a highlight! I have been very pleased with the services provided by Laura. We have recently moved and I was a bit apprehensive leaving my other provider, finding another and being virtual. I felt that Laura was a wonderful match for me at the start and made the transition seamless. She is wonderful.
